Nicole & Noah drove down from Michigan to Chicago for this very special engagement session. They vacationed in Chicago often and wanted to show their love for our great city in their engagement photos.

6 years ago I shot my very first wedding at Navy Pier here in Chicago!

The Homestead 1854 in Plano is a beautiful wedding venue with authentic decor and wood trim galore. You almost feel like you are stepping back into time when you enter the home on the property.

The wedding day started off at the historic Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Chicago.

If you know anything about Dayna & Jeff know this, they are just the happiest and giggliest couple I have ever had the pleasure of photographing! Their laughter, smiles and tears of joy just lit up every room they entered! Their wedding ceremony was at the beautiful Amersale Barn in Crete, IL

Marissa & Sean’s wedding day was perfect! These two looked liked classic movie stars on their wedding day! Marissa’s wedding dress was the most classic and prettiest I have ever seen.

I was so honored that Eric & Irene asked me to photograph their upcoming Spring wedding. Eric and I were classmates back in the day and so he has followed my work for the last few years and suggested me to his fiancee when they got engaged.

Simple, Classy and Elegant is how I would describe this fabulous wedding. Tanya & Roberto’s wedding was like no other and truly was a wedding to remember! The bride rolled up to her church, Sts. Volodymyr and Olha Ukrainian Catholic Church in a classic Rolls-Royce. She made an entrance to be remembered. It was my first time shooting a traditional Ukrainian / Catholic wedding and the traditions that were shared were simply beautiful.

Jessica & Matt were a blast to spend the day with. They laughed and joked with just about everyone and made my whole team feel like family. The day of the wedding I found out that Matt’s grandpa, a deacon, was to perform the ceremony for Matt and Jess!

Omar & Valinthea’s wedding ceremony was not without a few hiccups but what wedding doesn’t have those? It helped that the atmosphere inside the Dream Palace Banquet Hall was relaxed and everyone who came to witness these two beautiful souls be joined as one could not have been any nicer and more excited for this family.
